Once again, there's plenty to report at these Championships.
Firstly on the curling front, Scotland fell away to a 4-7 defeat against Sweden, despite being 3-1 up after 5 ends. And, once again, Scotland lost 3 shots to leave too much to do in the latter stages. The players seemed to play better than they did against Korea, but they didn't get away with any slack play against the current Olympic champions.
On the Covid front, the broadcasting team positive cases has now risen to 7, so no official TV pictures until at least Wednesday night. The "in play" pictures on the WCF FB page seem to be taken on a mobile phone from the side stands by an official. Much better than nothing at all, but not nearly as good as being behind the direction of the stone.
Added to that, a spammer is trying to post a link on the FB page suggesting "live stream" broadcast footage. WCF are taking these links down as they appear.
